Arms

  • Active Comparator: Pericapsular Nerve Block Group
    Pericapsular Nerve Block targets the anterior hip capsule by blocking the articular branches of the femoral nerve and accessory obturator nerve.
  • Active Comparator: Fascia Iliaca Nerve Block Group
    Fascia Iliaca Nerve Block targets the space between the iliacus muscle and the fascia that overlies it (fascia iliaca), within which the femoral nerve and lateral femoral cutaneous nerve (LFCN) course.

Primary Outcome Measure

Change in Visual Analog Pain Scale (VAS) Score [ Time Frame: Every 4 hours from end of surgery to 48 hours post surgery or discharge ]
